QUESTION #11 - RESULTS

Before we go on, I checked my records, ROC, and I couldn't find a PM from you for Question 10. Now let's see, I asked for a 14 or 15 seed 'giant killer'. You said...

Nick 1733 (2:08 AM) - East Tennessee St

STL FANATIC (2:14 AM) - Cleveland St

lmupepbander (2:17 AM) - Cleveland St (X)

KennyRock (3:02 AM) - Weber St

josh_j182 (2:44 PM) - Coppin St (X)

DarthMan (3:21 PM) - Cleveland St (X)

Snowcap30 (6:33 PM) - Hampton (X)

And I answered Richmond to this question. I just forwarded you the PM I sent on Tuesday, December 21st, 2004 - 05:45:27

Do you have me on ignore or something? I've been robbed out of two points so far.

Looks like I'm gonna stop playing if the game moderator cannot give credit to everyone.

Just to clear up what happened with ROC...on question #11, he did give a correct answer, but it was two hours late, so I could not accept it. That said...

QUESTION #13 - RESULTS

I asked for someone with 2,000 blocks in his NBA career. You said...

jpslapshot22 (10:41 AM) - Bill Russell (XX)

CaolinaJoe (10:56 AM) - George T. Johnson

Snowcap30 (11:22 AM) - Tree Rollins

josh_j182 (11:23 AM) - Hakeem Olajuwon

ROCHitman (12:36 PM) - Tree Rollins (X)

STL FANATIC (1:52 PM) - George T. Johnson (X)

DarthMan (3:00 PM) - George T. Johnson (X)

zoneranger (3:51 PM) - Kareem Abdul-Jabbar

AstroBull21 (4:29 PM) - David Robinson

lmupepbander (9:43 PM) - Manute Bol

NJTank (10:12 PM) - Manute Bol (X)

JP, I don't doubt that Russell blocked 2,000 shots in his career. Unfortunately, he played before blocks were counted as an officail statistic, so we don't know how many he had or not. I have to rule the answer wrong. Scores are...

OK, I didn't know that Russell's blocks were not officially counted. I think in the future, you could word the question a little differently (like adding, "since 1973"), to avoid discrepancies like this.

a question,will

do you usually post these around the same time? if so, then some people get an unfair advantage to get the first answer. b/c i can only get on at certain times, i never have a shot at this- maybe a change is needed

That's why I haven't played--it's usually ansered by the time I get to post.

Tank's stumpers--are usually good timing for me...

No, he doesn't. Started middle of the night, then went to mid morning, then afternoon. Pretty much no rhyme or reason to what time he posts them.

He posts at random times so anyone can answer at anytime, that way no one can sit on the time and answer first every time.
